[quote=Anonymous]OP, you deserve credit for mentioning the dirty little secret that everyone knows. More than a few DCPS educators, including administrators, have not mastered standard English grammar and conventions. And no, it's not asking for too much. Licensed teachers are required to pass a writing test on the Pre-PRAXIS, but apparently the threshold for grammar and usage is fairly low. As a former DCPS teacher I had to listen to colleagues (including ELA teachers and coaches) make painful and frequent grammatical and usage errors during mandatory meetings. But I wouldn't go to the principal. Talk to the teacher directly. Suggest that she use grammarly.[/quote]
